Instead of DIC....

[Count Morfeo]

....we ended up with a couple of D I C K S

 

The count brings news grim. It's official, the little fella Gillett has confirmed we have f*ck all money to splash in the summer. But, he insists, Rafa is OK about it. Which he isn't, by the way.

How did his Countness acquire this information?

[philyhamann]

So what was the point in the investment? Oh lordy.

Oh dear. Oh deary me. That is not good news at all. In fact, that is very un-good news. Shit sandwich.

[Moschops II]

Maybe he mislaid his money after waving it around on TV?

I know your bad self wouldn't spread shite idly. I'm depressingly unsurprised by this news.

[Nerik]

Ou est le source?

[Stefan]

The Count should only bring good news. The Count followed by bad news makes you happy and sad at the same time.

[RedinSweden]

Ou est le source?

 

The Count

[Jari37]

I doubt we have fuck all to spend - I really doubt it.

[Jari37]

even if the count says so.

If the Count says it's true then so be it.

Can you define "fuck all" ??

Or do you literally mean nothing?

[George Costanza]

The Count brings depressing but unsuprising news. Can't say we haven't been warned.

 

Serenity Now!!!!

[hamstrung]

Why would they continually emphasis the point that he would have money to spend if he isn't going to?

 

I know they are Yanks, but surely better just for them to keep schtum.

 

If this is true they will look like a couple of dicks, and will have immediately got on the wrong side of the people they are trying to win over.

[WeAreTheBest]

The Count rules so unfortunately his info wont be far wrong.

 

If it does turn out this way then I wonder if they'll hide behind "the stadium re-design" cost us to much.

They can fuck right off if they try that on me. I'll be round their house before you can say "postal"

It is most odd.

 

As for people saying they may hide behind the stadium redesign then I would not be surprised, but they have been talking about that for months and have never once mentioned it may impact transfers.

[liver bird]

oh dear,not from the usual shit stirring quarters and adding significantly to the doubts quite a few people are having.

 

What better way to bury bad news than to unveil plans for the new stadium when you should really be unveiling new players?

[Sangria]

Is right RIS, they would have looked at the plans etc before buying and knew that it was shite and needed changes - that would cost money - they have experience in building stadiums.

If they had told us from day one, what the score was and not filled us with lies and hyped us up.

I still believe they will come good. All said and done we will know in a few months and that is not long to wait.

[jackofdk]

Fuck. Gillett and Hicks are fucking liars. Fuck.

[Jonte]

But it doesn't rime with this interview of Hicks though - http://www.canada.com/montrealgazette/news/sports/story.html?id=62c4b3e0-0592-4d91-b3bc-15952b12801b

Aye, if they'd started re doing it and said "Look, we're re-designing bits of the new stadium, as you know that costs money so it may impact of spending this Summer and its important for future revenue we do get this done ASAP" or whatever then yeah fine if thats the way it has to be but IF we end up with not a lot after promising Rafa whoever he wants, Snoogy Doogy, etc etc then i'll be very fucked off.

[Uncle_Meat]

The Count, bless his cotton socks, has made me sad.

 

Sad and angry.

 

 

Grrrrrrr.. <sob>. Grrrrr.

[Moo]

After all they have said I still have a tiny smidgeon of hope that they might come good.

If not what a pair of foolhardy twats they are.

All I know is that every time The Count comes with some news, he gets it bang on. Investment, Warnock to Blackburn, to name a couple.

 

This is highly worrying.

 

Edit: And, having now read the article, i would say Hicks is very careful with his words with regards money there.
